OpenAI sent a letter to Texas Governor Greg Abbott outlining our commitment to responsible AI infrastructure development in Texas. We look forward to working with state and local leaders, utilities, and communities to ensure AI infrastructure delivers meaningful benefits to Texans. The letter, published on August 10, 2026, highlights our focus on collaboration and responsible growth.

This effort is part of OpenAI’s broader global initiative to advance responsible AI. The organization has also been engaging with communities in Europe and the U.S., including Effingham County, to build AI infrastructure that benefits local economies and supports national goals.

By partnering with Texas leaders, OpenAI aims to create a framework for AI infrastructure that is safe, reliable, and beneficial. The letter emphasizes the importance of working together to ensure that the development of AI in Texas aligns with the state’s values and needs.
